No, wrap it up now since I've got the winning bid in now at the ball busting amount of $230 and can't afford to go up another single on this book. Especially since I now am leading in all of the other GA keys with a high bid of $1.00 or an outrageous 10 times original cover price. What is this world coming to as I am now going to have to speak to my banker about getting a loan for all of these books.

What a beautiful copy. If only it had anyone other than the Fighting Yank as the featured character. Just seeing that dude is an incredible turn off.

Just seeing that dude is an incredible turn off. Yes, I still remember back in the day when Overstreet used to have both Exciting 9 and Startling 10 with the same valuations in his price guide. Definitely not the case anymore, although it would appear that the Exciting 9 should be a lot easier to find since it has almost twice as many copies in the census report as compared to the Startling 10. circumstances 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tth2 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Is it just me or is there a ton of recycled stuff in this auction? Even more than a normal Heritage auction. And from very recent auctions. Mr. Lady Luck and Artboy99 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I noticed is that the Tandano Corporation must have figured that they had waited long enough and are now trying to get out from under these books, as I noticed quite a few of the big books are being auctioned off on their behalf.

Yeah, I wonder the same thing. Stuff going on that I assume you have to be on the inside to understand. I don't keep track of them closely enough to give more than a vague impression but it appears far more often than not the flipper (or re-flipper or re-re-flipper) is losing money assuming he's having to pay at least some fees, not to mention the sales tax (unless he has the dealer tax waiver thing). gino2paulus2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
